  • Good luck, Shari!

    Nothing too exciting here... at work, it's Women's History Month, and there's a speaker coming, so I'll be going to hear her speak. Her name is Jane Golden, and she's the founder of the Philadelphia Mural Arts Program. I'm excited to hear her speak b/c that program is so amazing!!!

  • Nothing exciting...just talked to my boss for 2 hours about life and kitchen countertops. LOL That's great, Shari! GL!

  • arg=pirate talk to me. I have nada going on. I am twiddling my thumbs at work.  My 12pm and 2pm appointments didn't show up.  It makes the day very, very slow sometimes.  Tomorrow, however, I literally have appointments every hour on the hour between 8am-4pm.  Wednesdays are insanity for me!  Looking forward to the madness.....not.
  • I have one small tidbit of info to share. I had to sign this policy yesterday at work stating that I understood I am prohibited from engaging in sexual relationships with clients, exchanging money for services, accepting gifts and providing clients with personal information about myself (for example my cell or home phone number).  bwahahahahahahahaha.....as if!
  • Anna that is hilarious!  I guess you'll have to find a new weekend hobby.
  • eb: She is a very good speaker! I've actually been to one of her talks and really enjoyed it.
  • Not so much a story as a vent...

    I am about 6 1/2 months pregnant now and I've gained about 12 pounds thus far.  Instead of people saying how you feeling or even you look good (even if I don't) there are 2 women in my office that insist on telling me things like "Whoa you really popped", "Look at you, you are wearing your pregnancy all around" and etc...

    Now I am still in my regular pants (with the help of a belly band) and I can still wear some of my own tops.  Why can't people, especially women, just say you look good, or don't say anything at all.  I don't look at them and say "Whoa, those pants make your ars look huge" 

    Vent Over...!

    I think you are absolutely amazing for still wearing original-sized pants and tops. Tell them to get a hobby!

  • Next time someone says something like that to you just reply,...

    "I'm pregnant what's your excuse?"  And then walk away.

    Blame it on hormones later on.

  • ditto what lilylow said!  I gained 10 lbs and went through an entire year of speculation and questioning from co-workers about my "pregnancy" and when the baby was due.  People....a freaking year!  By the time that fake kid came out he would have been 18!  People just don't know what to say sometimes.
